Adam Milstein has plenty of experience as an investor in real estate, a creative entrepreneur, a leader in his community, and as a philanthropist. He moved to America in 1981 from Israel and is proud of his Israeli roots. He earned a Bachelor’s degree in business and economics in Israel before coming to the United States and then received an MBA while attending the University of Southern California. Eventually, Adam Milstein became a top real estate investment manager in the Los Angeles area who works in financing, accounting, and positioning. All of this describes his work life pretty well, but there is something else that is of the utmost importance to Adam, and that is where most of his energy is expended in his daily life.

The Philanthropy of Adam Milstein

Early on in his life, Adam Milstein realized that life is meaningless unless you are helping other people. He carried this knowledge with him throughout his life and helped people along the way and eventually decided to do much more. Not only does Adam practice the Jewish practice of “ma’aser rishon,” where a person donates 10% of their income to charities, but his wife and himself also started the Adam and Gila Milstein Family Foundation, which has been a huge help to many people. Through the foundation, Adam Milstein donates more than $1 million on a yearly basis to spread of organizations and programs that support non-profits, non-governmental groups, and that combat anti-Semitism. Adam also helped with the founding of the Israeli-American Council, which helps to solidify the bonds between Israelis and Americans and has reached over 100,000 Israeli Americans with its message.

The Way To A Better World

Throughout his life, Adam Milstein has been able to bring together many people that come from different backgrounds, and he also has inspired other philanthropists to do more. His philosophy for philanthropy is that it should be able to help people all of the way from their childhood throughout their adolescence and into their adulthood. He feels like this creates a lasting connection and impression on the person being helped and that this is the best way to begin building a better world for future generations to come.
